FWIW, bought the PowerShot manual stapler (Model 5700M) which is also
capable of using 9/16 and 5/18 finish nails. I've run over a box (1250
3/8" staples) through it, and it has not jammed once. That is good
because it appears there are 2 or 3 screws that need to be removed "in
the rare event" that it does jam. The string in quotes is from the
instructions. The stapler is $19.99 at Lowes but I saw it on sale
Menards recently for about $14.99. It did what I needed it to do (put
up some insulation).

I bought an Arrow CT50 LiIon stapler to do some insulation work. What a
total
waste of money! It won't even stick a 1/2" staple into SYP. The safety
makes
it totally useless. That was a Franklin down the tubes.

Bet it is as good as the corded one I have. It will staple cardboard to
cardboard. That's about it.
